Hi,
Looking for a study buddy in or around nyc area targeting August lsat. ideally 160 and above avg, aiming for 170+.
Not looking for any specific structure but more so getting dialogue going and go from there.
Thanks

I'm confused. I get why E would weaken the argument.
However answer choice C says it would "benefit a much smaller number of consumers" and J.Y responds by saying "but it would benefit, wouldn't it?"
Yet E says the privatization will produce much less competition, so why can't we say "but it wouldn't produce some competition, wouldn't it?"
Thanks

Can't speak to how possible it is given that I am still working toward a 99th percentile score myself. However, I think the gap is significant enough where it would probably make sense to study towards a score goal rather than setting the goal market to be the October LSAT.
I don't think 40 point increase is impossible but at the very least is incredibly uncommon so just opens the door for frustration given you'll only have 5 months, assuming no breaks.
Good luck

I truly feel like the correct answer to this question is not a good one. Why? Answer B depends on us having to make serious assumptions. What if the newspaper consistently covers the biggest stories while their competitors cover smaller/less relevant stories? Then maybe it is justified that the training you are gaining is continuously valuable to a degree higher than that of the competitors.
Alternatively, what if the average work experience of the competitor's employees is 15 years? In that case answer B again fails to weaken the argument.
I think B requires a strong enough assumption that you could use it as the correct answer on a strengthen question, just by flipping the assumption to something like the competitor's employees have higher avg. years of experience.
My point is, I think you could make assumptions that go either way. I don't find the assumption that 10 years of experience weakens the executive's argument any more reasonable than assuming that the newspaper covers better/bigger stories or that maybe the competitors hire people with more than 10 years of experience, for instance.
or maybe i'm going crazy with lsat studying?? what am I missing.
hey also interested. ty
